OUR FAVORITE BLUEBERRY PANCAKES
These blueberry pancakes are light and fluffy and made entirely from scratch. They're not too sweet and are scented with vanilla, making them extra delicious. You can use fresh or frozen blueberries in our recipe. In the first step of the recipe, we mix milk and vinegar (or lemon juice) together. This is an easy way to mimic buttermilk. The acid reacts with the baking soda and makes the pancakes light and fluffy. Instead of mixing the milk and acid, you can substitute buttermilk. Or, if you would prefer to use baking powder, we've provided tips in the notes section below. *We call for unsalted butter in the recipe. You can use salted butter, but you may want to reduce the amount of salt used.

Steps:
- In a 2-cup measuring jug or bowl, stir the milk and vinegar (or lemon juice) together, and then set aside for five minutes. (This mixture mimics buttermilk, which when mixed with the baking soda later in the recipe, makes the pancakes fluffy.)
- Meanwhile, whisk the flour, sugar, baking soda, and the salt in a medium bowl.
- Whisk the egg, vanilla, and almond extract into the milk.
- Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Pour the milk mixture and melted butter into the well and use a fork to stir until you no longer see clumps of flour. It is okay if the batter has a few small lumps - it is important not to over-mix the batter. The batter will be thick, but still pourable. If it seems too thick, add an extra splash of milk.
- If using fresh blueberries, fold in the blueberries. (For frozen blueberries, keep them to the side as you will add them later.)
- Heat a large skillet (or use a griddle) over medium heat. The pan is ready if when you splatter a little water onto the pan surface, the water dances around the pan and eventually evaporates.
- Lightly brush the skillet with melted butter. Use a 1/4-cup measuring cup to spoon batter onto skillet. Gently spread the batter into a 4-inch circle. If you are using frozen blueberries, scatter a handful on top of the uncooked side of the pancake.
- When the edges look dry, and bubbles start to appear and pop on the top surfaces of the pancake, turn over. This takes about 2 minutes. Once flipped, cook another 1 to 2 minutes or until lightly browned and cooked in the middle. Serve immediately with warm syrup, butter, and more berries.

BLUEBERRY PANCAKES
From Cook's Illustrated. When fresh blueberries are not in season, frozen blueberries are a good alternative. To make sure that frozen berries do not bleed, rinse them under cool water in a mesh strainer until the water runs clear, then spread them on a paper towel-lined plate to dry. If you have buttermilk on hand, use 2 cups of buttermilk instead of the milk and lemon juice. 1 cup blueberries = 16 T, 1 T per pancake. If you like more blueberries, as my husband does, double the quantity of blueberries and use 6-8 blueberries per pancake. Also, I use a 1/3 cup measure to get slightly larger pancakes.

Tips:
- Thaw frozen blueberries before using: This will help them mix more evenly into the batter and prevent the pancakes from becoming too cold.
- Use a large bowl to mix the batter: This will give you plenty of room to whisk the ingredients together without making a mess.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the pancakes tough. Just mix until the ingredients are combined.
- Cook the pancakes over medium heat: This will help them cook evenly without burning.
- Serve the pancakes immediately: Pancakes are best when they're fresh off the griddle. Serve them with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, or fruit.

Blueberry pancakes are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast. They're perfect for a special occasion or a lazy weekend morning. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a stack of fluffy, golden pancakes that are sure to please everyone at the table.
